About This Access Site
Crowley Lake Fish Camp offers a convenient boat ramp and access point for kayakers, canoeists, and other boaters on the expansive Crowley Lake. The campground itself features 47 RV and tent sites, with no hookups but potable water available. A $10 per night fee applies.

For those looking to explore the lake, the Fish Camp provides boat rentals and a full-service marina with over 200 private slips. Crowley Lake is known for its excellent trout fishing, with the potential for trophy-sized brown and rainbow trout. Boaters and anglers should be aware that the access road can be closed at times due to dam repairs, making the Fish Camp the best option for launching.

While on the water, paddlers and boaters can enjoy the scenic vistas of the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains surrounding Crowley Lake. Several nearby campgrounds, including the reservable East Fork Campground, provide additional options for overnight stays in the area. For those seeking a more immersive outdoor experience, the nearby Rock Creek Trail offers hiking opportunities along the lake's shores.
